I have really enjoyed living in this apartment. The whole building has big windows that lets it tons of light, so my living area is very well lit. It used to be the board of educations, so there are lots of art deco features in the hallways. The apartments were recently set up, so the appliances are relatively new, with nice kitchen countertops. Each floor plan is unique, and I selected one with really small windows in the bedroom which lets me keep it dark when I work night shifts.

There is a bus stop directly outside the building where the 7, 48 and 49 stop, which give you easy access to the hospital and the rest of center city. It's also very easy to walk to the trolleys on Market Street. Target, Whole Foods and Trader Joe's are all in walking distance. The building is quiet, pet friendly, has a gym in the basement, and has door security that takes care of packages.

My only complaint is that the windows are a bit drafty during the winter. I use thick curtains which are fairly effective at keeping out the wind. My utility bill went up somewhat in the winter months, but nothing unreasonable.

Being right in center city, I think I got a really good deal for my apartment. It is very spacious with good natural lighting. It is super convenient for public transportation, and lots in the area to walk to! The only complaint I have is that it can be loud sometimes.

Great location and affordable, has some issues

Great location, doorman, package service, small gym in building. It’s not the best kept, there are years of layers of paint on the walls and cabinets, the heating is hard to adjust so I have to open the windows in the winter to titrate the temperature, I occasionally have a cockroach visitor in the summer even though I keep things clean.

Spacious, sunny, wonderful view

I really love my neighborhood and the apartment. It has in unit washer/dryer, beautiful floors, a wonderful and spacious kitchen. The apartment feels very clean and the maintenance and front desk staff are really wonderful.

Perfect Location

My apartment building is perfect for me when it comes to law school. It is only a 15-20 minute walk, perfect to listen to a podcast or clear my mind. In the event of bad weather, I can take the trolley to the law school. It stops right in front of my building and drops me off on the same block as Penn Law. The one-bedroom is spacious, although a little pricey. However, I have a gym on the top floor and living alone was important to me. I did not want roommates, for at least my first year, so I could focus on my studies. Also, I wanted my bedroom to be separate from my work/living space. Further, I wanted enough space to have a desk, because I do my best work at home with access to the gym, food, coffee, etc. to break up the long hours of studying. You will have to pay for utilities (water, electricity, and internet), but all together, no more than an extra $100/month. The security attendant is 24 hours/day, which is amazing and also important to me.

Old apartment with few issues, worthless management

Our apartment has no pest issues and we have needed very few fixes. When we need things fixed, a maintenance person usually comes within a day or so. However, whenever we need to talk to management (i.e. because the building lost power for twelve hours, or because they raised our rent without warning) we get no response. With regards to the rent issue, we did not get a response for over six months, even though we emailed and called. However, these things happen infrequently so it hasn't been a consistent problem.
